Vietnamese influencer Phan Phuong was captivated by Guiyang's climate and scenery. After experiencing the stunning views at a cliffside cafe, she described it with one word - "Perfect".

Recently, six international influencers from Brazil, Thailand, Vietnam, Pakistan, Rwanda, and Nigeria embarked on an immersive travel experience in Guiyang, Southwest China's Guizhou province. With an average summer temperature of 22.3 C, Guiyang is surrounded by a 374-kilometer green belt encircling the city, with a forest coverage rate exceeding 55 percent. The air quality remains excellent 99 percent of the year.

Dr'Zeeshan Qasim, an influencer from Pakistan, was particularly impressed. He remarked, "You have the cool summer breeze here, the karst greenery visible from your window, guesthouses nestled in the mountains, and local snacks." After visiting places like Chuken Manor and Qingyun Market, he further exclaimed, "It's enchanting. Guiyang is full of surprises, and the unique guesthouses feel like living in a scenic painting."

This sense of leisure resonated deeply with Cymye from Brazil: "We can really slow down here. In big cities, you're always rushing, even if you think 'I need to stop', but you can't. But here, you can breathe fresh air, eat fresh food, and truly enjoy life. I even want to stay here for a month."

For Huang Ziming from Rwanda, who has lived and started a business in Guiyang for many years, Guiyang has become his second home. He said, "Surrounded by forests and with fresh air, Guiyang has no scorching heat waves, and its mild climate makes it an ideal destination for global tourists seeking a summer retreat or long-term stay."
